04/06/2012
The IU Libraries and the IU Data to Insight Center are recipients
of funding from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to fund a CLIR/DLF
Data Curation Postdoctoral Fellowship. The Council on Library and
Information Resources (CLIR) has received a $679,827 grant from the
Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to help launch a new CLIR/DLF Data
Curation Fellowship Program. The program, an expansion of
CLIR’s Postdoctoral Fellowship Program in Academic Libraries,
will provide recent Ph.Ds with professional development, education,
and training opportunities in data curation for the natural and
social sciences. The IU Libraries and the IU Data to Insight
Center, a part of the IU Pervasive Technology Institute, will be
part of the program's first cohort and as such we are currently
recruiting for this fellowship. Information about the program and
position descriptions are available at http://www.clir.org/fellowships/datacuration.
Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until all
positions are filled, but no later than June 30, 2012.
